Hey, everybody, how you doing? Well, that's good. Welcome to P.H.L.Y. Flyers. My name is Bill Mats. I'm your director of fun and games for

the afternoon. Joining me, as always, it is Philadelphia's number one hockey beatwriter Charlie O'Connor.

And coming by in just a few minutes, it'll be our foreign correspondent and draft analyst,

the one and only Alex Applyard,

to talk about his James Hagan's article from, was it Friday, Charlie, it got published?

Yes.

Yeah, I believe it was Friday.

Friday, I think.

So he'll be by in a minute to talk about that.

Until then, I have a couple of things to throw at you. First and foremost, as I tell you

every single day, and you people need this constant reminding. Hit the freaking like button.

Do it. We want the likes. It makes us feel good about ourselves. It makes us see you feel like

you're all paying attention

you know like i'm up here doing a lecture hall and i want to make sure you're not just sleeping in

the comments you're not just sleeping in the audience you're interacting with us best way to do that

it's to hit that freaking like button and it grows the show it grows the show do you want to keep

watching me not the not the not the not everything else sure my the show. Do you want to keep watching? It's about me, not the, not everything else, Charlie.

My point is that if you want to keep watching us do a daily live show on the Philadelphia Flyers,

the likes increase our reach and the reach increases our listener of viewership.

And if our listener and viewership continues to increase, we'll all keep our jobs.

So think of it as an investment in the continued viability of the show.

Yes, invest in us and invest in Friday's draft party.
